' Our present invention relates to new dyestufis which yield black dyeings .of .an 7 excellent fastness to light and washinglwhen after-treated with an aldehyde and with a copper'salt, and it relates furthermore to a process of making such dyestuffs" I 4 The process of manufacturein accordance with this invention comprises combining a l 1 amino 8-- hydroxy-naphthalene sulfonic acid of the general formula:

? gen or a sulfonic acid group 7 with the diazocompound of two amines of the formulae: H2N QR +HzNQR hydronyl or carboxylic acid: group, the other 7 R an alkoxy, hydroxyl'or carboxyl c' 391d" grbupythe two R meansnlt'roor acylamlno groups and the benien nuclei may contain further 7 substituents,; transforming in thediazo-dyestuifs thus produced the groups R into amino groups inthe known manner,'tet-' o razotizing and combining these tetraz o"com-.

' OH R Z t A pounds with two compounds of the formula o z wherein each Z means an amino or hy-droxy groups and the benzene nucleus may contain 7 further substituents. a r

The dyestuffs thus obtained correspond probably to the general formula V V V y the presentinvention no injury of such a' wherein one B means'hydrogeman alkony wherein X; Y, Z, R and the benzene nuclei have the aforesaid signification. V

The above mentioned after-treatment is advantageously carried out on the fiber, For this purpose thedyed'goods are "treated, si multaneously or in any sequence, with an aldehyde, especially formaldehyde, andwith a copper salt. .7 V

- It is a remarkable fact that the formation of a copper complexjtake's place in conjunction with theaction ofthe aldehyde andfurthermore that thefastness to washing is not:

injured by this combinedtreatment. v

Itis well known in theart that the fastness to washing is improved by treating certain direct black cotton dyestuffsv on the fiber with formaldehyde. However the dyein'gs thus obtained exhibit relatively little fastness tolight. This disadvantage, which could hith-' erto not be avoided even by any further treat- :nent, prevented a larger employment ofthe after-treatment with formaldehyde.- By the combined after-treatment of the dyestufis of nature has'been observed.

The paste thus produced which dissolves in water to a bluish green solution is again suspended in water and mixed with an aqueous solution of 14 parts of sodium nitrite and with the necessary amount of hydrochloric acid. \Vhen the tetrazotation is finished, the mass is allowed to run into a solution containing 22 parts of 3-amino-1- hydroxybenzene and an excess of sodium carbonate. After the end of the combining reaction the precipitated dyestuif is filtered and dried. It represents a black bronzy powder soluble in "water and dyeing the Vegetable fiber reddish black shades. It corresponds probably to the formula i The dyeing may be after-treated in the following manner: The goods dyed in the usual way are rinsed, treated for 30 minutes in a hot or boiling bath containing about 363% of a solution of formaldehyde of strength and about 0,5% of copper sulfate (calculated to the dyegood) rinsed and dried. The dyeings after-treated in this manner have become somewhat more greenish and are distinguished by an excellent fastness to washing, boiling with acidand to light.

. The after-treatment may also be carried out subsequently in two operations. 49 I Ewampl The tetrazocompound of the amino-disazodyestufl' prepared according to Example;
